Description

Read Ander Monson’s review of this project in Essay Daily.

ATTN: is an event-based journal. Twice a year, we ask poets to document whatever it is that has their attention on a particular day (poems, notes, sketches, collage, reviews, screen grabs, etc). Work is done on 8.5 x 11″ sheets, then mailed to the FOBW press address. Covers are letter pressed, and all contributions are xeroxed and included as is. Each issue documents communities of attention in their moment of attention.

The second issue was guest edited by Tongo Eisen-Martin, erica lewis, and Tyrone Williams on April 25, 2016. It features a letterpress cover by Tyrone Williams, and contributions from Eric Amling, Nadia Bourne, Timothy Bradford (w/Crag Hill, J.L. Jacobs, & Chad Reynolds), Dan Brady, Sarah B.
